Hair Extensions

As I walk through the halls I see girls who have the most beautiful curls in their hair.  I always wondered how they were able to do that because no matter what I tried, I could never get my hair to look like that.  I finally realized that all of these girls wear extensions in their hair and that's how they got it so long and curly.  I thought this was the coolest thing especially because some are as easy as a clip.  Easy to put in your hair and easy to take out as well.  I love the look of long hair on girls so I think extensions are a great idea.  -Lindsey 5/22

Girls perspective on Boys

I think boys definitely have it the hardest when it comes to fashion.  They want to look nice so they can get girls attention, but if they look too nice it gets the girls attention in the wrong way.  A guy that is really into fashion isn't looked upon as stylish, but rather girly.  From a girls perspective, I hate seeing guys in vibrant or pastel colors.  I feel like it takes away from their manliness.  When I see them dress up for sports I think it always looks the best when they go for a simple button down collared shirt.  When they start sporting sweater vests it kind of makes you see them in a different light that I don't think they necessarily want to be seen in.  I know it's hard on boys because for the most part they just don't know.  Those are the boys that I like though, the ones who go simple and casual.   -Lindsey 5/22

Curly Vs. Straight

     Every morning when I wake up the first thing I decide is whether to wear my hair straight or curly.  I used to always be jealous of people who had naturally curly hair because I love how different it looks on everyone.  Lately, however, I feel like straight hair is definitely the way to go.  I'm not sure if I just had a change of opinion or if it's just more popular now.  Whatever the reason, I really feel that this summer the hair to be jealous of will be straight. -Lindsey 5/15

        

Summer Dress Code

As the weather gets nicer girls are starting to make the switch from jeans to shorts.  The school, however, does not support this trend.  Many girls have been called down by the principal's office this year for wearing extremely short shorts.  I understand that they want kids to look respectable at school, but it's getting ridiculous the number of girls they've pulled aside.  I also feel that there is a huge difference between short shorts and a short skirt.  Short shorts are really just revealing more leg, I think it's really insignificant and the school of becoming way to harsh. -Lindsey 5/15

Prom Hairstyles

     Because senior prom was last night I thought it would be appropriate to talk about the different fashion trends that I observed there.  One of the main things that could go wrong for a girl is the hair.  I've heard several stories about girls who go to the salon and pay around $100 to get their hair professionally done, and then they get in the car and start crying.  Some girls are so afraid of speaking up that they end up wasting money.  I'm lucky, though, that I have a good enough relationship with my hairdresser to not feel rude if I want her to change something.  I'm so thankful that I had a good experience with hair this year! -Lindsey 5/15

Shorts

High school girls are sporting all different types of shorts lately.  The most popular are short shorts and bermuda shorts.  I personally hate the look of bermuda shorts.  I think they look extremely awkward on people because they are tight all the way down to their knees.  They look like mom shorts.  I like jean short shorts the best because they act as a substitute for jeans in the warm weather and, similarly, can be worn with pretty much any shirt.   -Lindsey



Bathing Suit Season

The warm weather has brought excitement to everybody.  As pools are opening up and people are taking their boat covers off, the bathing suit question is lingering in everyones mind.  Should you wear a bikini, tankini, or monokini?  The monokini with the cut-outs has been a new trend since last year.  I think it's an interesting new look, but i wouldn't recommend it to everybody.  You definitely have to be thin in order to wear this bathing suit.   -Lindsey
